McConnell Place North is a part of the Dickinsfield campus. The McConnells are designed to provide safe, small-home environments for residents diagnosed with dementia. These home settings are secure and provide support to live as independently as possible with round-the-clock care. Our person-centred approach to care provides a focus on meaningful engagement with residents.
The one-story building is designed in an E-shape and consists of three 12-bedroom houses joined by a common space. Each house has its own kitchen, living and dining room and laundry room. McConnell Place North provides many common areas for socializing and wide sunlit hallways for walking indoors. A courtyard, patio and extensive backyard and garden area provide multiple spaces for residents and families to gather and enjoy the outdoors together.
This resident care centre can help to address the progression of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia and provide a greater quality of life for people. Research has shown the cognitive functioning of people with dementia is better in home-like environments.
Residents are supported to engage in everyday activities and things they love including gardening and baking.
